Autorenporträt

Peter Mudge (BADipEd, DTheol, Honorary Research Associate, Sydney College of Divinity) initially taught in Catholic schools for four years, on a retreat team for one year, and then worked across four Catholic education offices in two States for twenty-four years, including two country dioceses. Peter taught tertiary online courses for a further seven years as a Senior Lecturer in Religious Education and Spirituality.

Over the last five years he has worked as a consultant and online lecturer at the Australian Catholic University; as a presenter for the new Studies in Catholic Thought syllabus; and as an academic advisor and 'critical friend' across many Australian dioceses and archdioceses.

Most recently, he has been preparing a series of ZOOM presentations on selected chapters from Series 1, 2 and 3. He is one of the few academics today researching, publishing and presenting spiritual formation materials directly for the use of school leaders, P-12 classroom teachers and students, parishioners, tertiary students and lecturers.
